Suppose a firm decided to leave a high-cost/ high-tax state like California to reloacte to a low-cost / low-tox state like Nevada. They are doing this because they will be able to save 30 percent on the cost of their labor (employees) and becouse the Nevada state government is giving them generous state tax incentives for new machinery and free land. This decision would be a good example of economies of scale. (Telsa car battery factocy story)

To answer this question, apply the economic way of thinking to the question “how much money should we in Nevada spend on education?” In providing your answer, demonstrate you understand the “law of diminishing returns” concept and the “opportunity cost” concept.arrow_forward
- Merlin builds tables that she will sell for $200 per table. Her fixed costs for building the table is $1,000. Each table costs her $50 for the raw materials and $25 for each previous table made that day, which shows Merlin's increasing exhaustion. So, it means that the first table will cost her $50, the second table will cost $75, and so on... How many tables should merlin produce each day (Consider the nearest whole number)? 7 tables 10 tables 6 tables v 9 tables Nextarrow_forwardWhich of the following statements related to cost estimation methods is true? O a. The three methods determine a slope and an intercept. O b. The high-low method is the most accurate and reliable method to determine the cost behavior compared to scatter-graph plot and least-squares regression methods. O c. The most complex method of cost estimation is the high-low method. O d. The scatter-graph method is used to derive an estimated line of cost behavior by graphically connecting the two cost amounts identified with the highest and lowest volume levels. O e. None of the given answers.arrow_forwardOnly typed answer and don't use chat gpt and please answer correctly Suppose that you can sell as much of a product (in integer units) as you like at $61 per unit. Your marginal cost (MC) for producing the qth unit is given by: MC=9q This means that each unit costs more to produce than the previous one (e.g., the first unit costs 9*1, the second unit (by itself) costs 9*2, etc.). If fixed costs are $50, what is the optimal output level? Please specify your answer as an integer. Also, assume that a competitive firm has the total cost function: TC = 1q3 - 40q2 + 710q + 1700 Suppose the price of the firm's output (sold in integer units) is $550 per unit. Using tables (but not calculus) to find a solution, what is the total profit at the optimal output level? Please specify your answer as an integer.arrow_forward
